Dina "interiors" är mycket snygga!
Betongen ser ut som den är "the real thing"!

Tackar. Inte så svårt att göra. Materialet gör det lätt att simulerar 'the real thing'.

Håller med det Rikard sa om betongen/asfalten! Ursnyggt!
Sista bilden med de infällda trappstegen.
Jag antar att det skall till rost både på stegen och betongen?

Artar sig riktigt fint!

Kanske det.

Tack igen Håkan

More details added. Will be adding a bay gate( not sure what they are called) and some minor other details.




I took some out door photos(not really good ones, as it was still early in the morning), but the results were enough to let me know it looks good in the outdoors.

Det bli bara snyggare och snyggare!

Det ser fantastiskt ut, som på riktigt ☺️

Incredible all the way!

Kul att höra.

I Made the docking bay door out some pieces of styrene.





The final bay door in place:




I then painted some thin white styrene stripes blue, for the trimming at the top edge of the building.






The bay door 'open & close' mechanism. I used a small piece I found in my 'box of tricks' and sliced up thin round styrene rod for the buttons.





The finished mechanism.

Snyggt! Ibland är det nästan så man tror att du lagt in nån bild på en riktig port!

HaHa! Om det var så lätt.

I apologies for the bad pics. But when the diorama is completed, I will take better ones. These are just WIP as you can see:

The bay door 'open & close' mechanism painted and ready to mount on the inside wall:





I scratch built a drainage pipe that will be mount between both, the brick and concrete bay walls:







I have added side roof strips to all sides of the front facing building and painted them blue:





I scratch built a canopy for the second docking bay. I thought it was necessary and adds interest to the rest of the scene.











I used cardboard corrugated roofing which made the job easy and simple. This was later glued onto the styrene piece that was the canopy.









I used my trusty nuts and bolts for the areas that were going to be mounted to the wall. As you can also see, I made some bracing as well.:













The canopy mounted in place. I think it looks ok.






I decided to redo the concrete ground work. I knew the ground did not look right, and this I was told should be perpendicular to the building and not at an angle as it is now. So I am trying to see if I can rectify my mistake by hiding those grooves. We'll see if it works.

You ar right about the the groundwork, it looks of when not perpendicular. Are yo going for tarmac or remake the concrete

Amazing work all the same

Brilliant work!

Helt fantastiskt !

Tack mannen. Du får skriver på svenska. Jag bara har inte orkat översätter allt.

I got the drain pipe in place. Yes. It is a little tight fit but it works. I have seen such fittings in very tight places. So I am not outside the norm.








Starting to add the little details both inside and outside. the concrete bay. Addind signs and graffiti around the bay. Also starting to add small scrape here and there.













I added the Bay Dock numbers on both docks.





I have now corrected the concrete ground, so it is perpendicular to the buildings. Took some spackling but I got it there.

Läckert när det trillar dit detaljer!
